Ask HN: Burnout, What to Do Next?

Been working for 7.5 years in Software and Gaming. I've been feeling burned out for a while now and with occasional time out,I come back fine. This time, I'm really done and want to take some time off. I'm more interested in creating content, design, making products and so on. How should I proceed? I can survive fine for tbe next 6-8 months fine without a job.
